Red Rising by Pierce Brown
4.0
Red Rising by Pierce Brown presents a compelling narrative that echoes a more matured Hunger Games, infused with elements of Game of Thrones.
While the writing could have been polished for a smoother delivery, the story itself grips with its captivating plot. The initial buildup may feel weighty, and the middle section can drag a bit, yet as protagonist Darrow navigates the intricacies of his society, the narrative gains momentum.
Once it hits its stride (get to the bit she starts to sing), I found myself wanting to find out more. Brown skillfully crafts a world where the stakes are high, and every decision has far-reaching consequences.
